Towards Tensor-Network SAT-Solvers for Quantum-Classical Workflows

Benjamin Zec, Lukas Schmidbauer, Maja Franz +1

Integrated HPC/QC systems aim to combine classical high-performance computing with quantum processors, but cannot be reduced to mechanisms for dispatching quantum kernels. An integ…

Software Between Quantum and Machine Learning -- And Down to Pulses

Maja Franz, Melvin Strobl, Jonathan Hunz +5

Contemporary quantum computing platforms remain, in essence, programmable physical systems whose control is typically mediated through unitary gate abstractions. While such abstrac…

Beyond Gates: Pulse Level Quantum Fourier Models

Melvin Strobl, Maja Franz, Lukas Scheller +3

In the domain of variational quantum algorithms, quantum Fourier models (QFMs) provide a mathematically well defined structure for quantum machine learning (QML). There has been a…

Towards Quantum Software for Quantum Simulation

Maja Franz, Lukas Schmidbauer, Joshua Ammermann +2

Quantum simulation is a leading candidate for demonstrating practical quantum advantage over classical computation, as it is believed to provide exponentially more compute power th…
